Ceske Vysoke Uceni Technicke v Praze

Zikova 4, 16 636 Praha 6, Czech Republic, Prague
4.10 / 5 based on 42 reviews.
Description:
In the course of the last half century, the Czech Technical University in Prague has undergone several reorganisations: the faculty of economic sciences was closed after 1948, and the faculty of chemical technology and the faculty of agriculture became independent in 1952. After 1960, CTU had four faculties: of civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, and a forerunner of the present faculty of nuclear science and physical engineering. The faculty of architecture was founded in 1976 and the faculty of transportation science in 1993 - so that at present, CTU has six faculties.

The accessibility of student needs
Second-hand text books
KEY:
Very easy.
Minimal effort.
Accessible but required effort.
Almost impossible.
Second-hand household items
Computers / Internet
Administrative
Money from home
Main source of funding:
An ERASMUS grant
Other sources of funding:
Personal savings
Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options
Personal spending habits:
Because everything is cheaper there,they don't have yet the euro,when they change their currency everything will be more expencive like in the rest of the european countries
Food, Travel, Nightlife, Overall, Telephone, Housing: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
It's better to take as more money as you can with you from your country and when you arrive there to open a bank account because if you choose to take money from the cash machine with your visa you pay a lot of taxes every single time.Public transportation is really good and it worths to take a card for 3 months than buing a ticket every time use use them.
